Selena Gomez adopts puppy

WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Oct. 25 (UPI) -- Selena Gomez adopted a 10-week-old puppy after she and boyfriend Justin Bieber visited a local animal shelter in Winnipeg, Manitoba, the shelter said.

D'arcy Johnston who run's Winnipeg animal rescue D'Arcy's A.R.C. told People magazine the young couple made a surprise stop at the shelter Friday.

"They spent a lot of time with the puppies," Johnston told People. "I was told that [Gomez] was missing the dogs that she has at home."

Gomez, who performed in Winnipeg during the weekend, has five rescue dogs at home.

Johnston said Gomez fell in love with a puppy and left with the dog after going through the shelter's standard screening process.

Gomez named the puppy Baylor, Johnston said.
